Wait Upon the Lord

Today's card is for three challenges...I think that is a record for me! I usually like to make a different card for each challenge I participate in but this one just seemed to come together for all three. I made it for Our Daily Bread Designs Wing It challenge, Stampin' Sisters in Christ "New" challenge and Moxie Fab World's Neutral Colour Challenge...French Vanilla, Twig and Smokey.

I love this stamp set (On Eagle's Wings) by ODBD because it has one of my all time favourite verses in it, Isaiah 40:31. The eagle is great for the wings challenge and I thought the verse was perfect for the "New" theme. What a wonderful comfort to know that when our strength is depleted if we just wait upon our Lord he will renew us with such strength that we will be able to soar like an eagle...wow!

Supplies:-
Stamps - ODBD On Eagle's Wings
SU ink
SU coloured cardstock
Silk Ribbon
SU corner punch
Foam dots
